Comedian Hannah Gadsby Brings Their New Show WOOF! Off Broadway This Fall

The hilarious Hannah Gadsby is set to return to New York City this fall with their latest stand-up show, Woof!, directed by Jenney Shamash. After sold-out engagements in Australia and across the US, Woof! will play a limited four-week engagement at the Abrons Art Center on the Lower East Side starting Friday, September 27 before an official opening night on Sunday, October 6, 2024. 

“Most people would be trying to level up at this point in their career, but not this contrary Nancy. You see, I get the impression the world is ending, so I have decided to go down the nostalgic route over the ambitious one. So, New York City, you’re part of a tour where I am revisiting many of my old haunts, such as the Edinburgh Fringe, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, and my cousins in Sandy Bay.  And so it is that I am returning to a room in New York very much like the last one I ever performed in before ‘Nanette-flix’ hit the stream and changed everything. It has become one of my favorite cities to perform in. Is that interesting? I think everybody loves New York – I’ve seen the t-shirts. But what definitely is interesting is that this is my best ever show. Hands down. I might quit after it. For fun this time,” said Gadsby.

Woof! marks Gadsby’s return to the New York stage following 2018’s smash success Nanette (and its subsequent premiere on Netflix), 2019’s New York Times Critic’s Pick Douglas, and 2022’s acclaimed run of Body of Work at BAM
